Critter Bowl VIII
TOURNAMENT RULES PACK 2023
March 04, 2023 at Wizards Asylum
3719 W. Main Street
Norman, OK 73072
Welcome to Critter Bowl! Why Critter Bowl?
This event started in 2013 as a Baby Shower/Blood Bowl Tournament for our buddy Sarge (Mike Tate). At the time of the event he and his wife currently were undecided on the baby’s name so until they came up with something they called the baby “Critter”. Thus the event became Critter Bowl.
This year we continue the Baby Shower/Blood Bowl Tournament tradition for a fellow co-worker of Scott Prime's and hard working father Shane Maldonado.
If there is anyone out there that cannot make it and you still want to pitch in for the Baby Shower side of this event please let us know.
PLEASE NOTE: All entry Fees for this tournament will go towards a gift card for the family to spend on the new family. In addition we will have some stuff for raffle at the event as well, with all proceeds going to the Maldonado family.

Team Building Rules
For this event we are using the World Cup Blood Bowl Event team build rule set. Please follow the link below to create your team. You only need to look over pages 2, 3, and 4.
This is NOT a Team Event, but the rosters will be created as if you were playing at the World Cup in Alicante, Spain. This is a great event to practice and try out your roster if you are planning on going to this event in September of 2023.
https://www.thenaf.net/.../12/Ruleset-NWC-Alicante-2023.pdf
Special Balls
Every game will be played with Special Balls (See last page of this document). In Tournament Rounds 1 thru 3 the kicking team will roll a D10 for the ball being used that drive. After each drive ends a new ball is randomized. Round 4 will not only be for the Critter Bowl Championship, but the remaining teams will be at their own Bowl game where the ball will not be randomized.
So for example your team might not make the Critter Bowl Championship but you did make the Nurgle King Bowl which only uses the Nurgling ball.
Weather
Everyone will roll for their own weather.
NAF Tournament Info
This is a NAF approved tournament. If you wish to receive limited edition gift and have your tournament progress tracked, there will be an NAF registration onsite for the cost of $5/year.
More information can be found at TheNAF.net
Illegal Procedure
In the spirit of good sportsmanship, Illegal Procedures will not be called
Timing
The two hour rounds WILL be strictly enforced. You will receive ‘Time Remaining’ updates from the Tournament Organizer to help you stay on pace.
The 4 Minute turn rule will not be used unless the Tournament organizer feels your game is in danger of not completing in the two hour timelimit. He may insist on a timer being used and enforcing the 4 minute turn rule.
Dice
You are encouraged to share dice with your opponent. Only GW or NAF Block Dice may be used and only the Both Down D6’s received at registration may be used. You and your opponent should decide whose set of dice will be used.
Scoring
After each round you will fill out the game sheet based on the game just completed.
• A WIN is worth 3pts
• A DRAW is worth 1pts
• A LOSS is worth 0pts
Overtime
There will be no overtime played. If your game ends in a draw, it’s a draw.
Top Table (Only if the event has 10 or more coaches)
At the beginning of Round 4 the #1 and #2 ranked coaches will be playing for the title of Critter Bowl Champion and 2nd place. Regard-less of any bonus points, the winner of this Top Table game is the Critter Bowl Champion. If the game ends in draw, then Total Tournament points will be used to decide the Champion from the entire field of teams.
Tiebreakers
The Scoring system has been setup to hopefully get the most accurate representation of how everyone has performed. If, by chance there is a tie in Tournament points, the ties will be broken in this order:
• Winning Percentage
• Strength of Schedule
• Head to Head record
• Net TDs plus Net CAS
• Total TDs plus Total CAS
If it is still a tie at that point, the tournament organizer will use his best judgment in finding a way to break the tie.
Painting
All teams are expected to meet the minimum painted guidelines. They must have 3 colors on them and have had some attempt at making them appear finished.
Sportsmanship
We are here for the fun of the game. Sportsmanship is not encouraged from the coaches it is required!
Fouling 16 turns in a row and running up the score is not poor sportsmanship, but gloating and ridiculing your opponent while doing so is.
Sportsmanship Awards will be determined based on answers given in the Etiquette Sheet.
Tournament Organizer will strictly enforce the “Don’t be a Douche” policy. Basically, it consists of not performing any acts of Douchebaggery.
Awards (NOTE: ALL AWARDS WILL BE CERTIFICATES)
The following awards will be given out after the last round:
o Critter Bowl Champion - Winner of Top Table in Round 4* (if more than 10 people)
o 2nd Place - Loser of the Top table round 4* (if more than 10 people)
o Del Zine Cup (3rd Place)- The Coach that finishes with the highest overall tournament points that wasn’t at the top table.
o Best Offense Certificate - Team that scored the most TDs
o Best Defense Certificate - Team that allowed the fewest TDs
o Most Brutal Certificate - Team that inflicted the most Casualties from Blocking
o Stunty Cup – Highest rated Stunty Team (Halflings, Goblins, Ogre, Snotlings) in standings
o Fan Favorite - Best team as decided by player vote. Tournament Organizer will have final say and break any ties.
o Best Sportsman - Best Sportsman as decided by player vote. Tournament Organizer will have final say and break any ties.
o Poopy Diaper Award - Coach that finished with lowest number of Tournament points
Spread The Wealth
A coach may only win one award. If they are in line to win more than one award, they will be asked which one they would prefer and the next coach in line will be given the other award. Tournament organizers reserve the right to adjust the awards, i.e. Back of the Pack has to have played in all 4 rounds.

Critter Bowl
Special Ball Table
1 Scarab Ball – The ball is replaced by a Scarab. Any time the ball lands in an empty square. It will move in a random direction decided by the scatter template (D8) and will move a D6 worth of squares. It will move its full movement before a bouncing ball pick-up attempt can be used. The ball will never move out of bounds on its own. It could be kicked out of bounds on a kick off.
2 Honey Badger Ball – This ball is super sticky. Anytime someone tries to hand off or pass the ball they must roll a D6, on a results of a 1 the Ball is stuck to the player and the action for that player is over.
3 Baby Orcipine Ball – Any failed pick up or catch roll (but not interception roll) is treated as the player being attacked with the Stab skill by an opponent.
4 Baby Griffin Ball – A baby Griffin can soar thru the air with ease. +1 to all Pass attempts.
5 Dead Pig Ball – It’s a dead pig used as the ball… nothing special here, except we can eat him after or during the game.
6 Baby Troll Ball – Yes they will be playing the game with a baby Troll as the ball. The Baby Troll Ball gives the holder Stupidity and loner.
7 Ginger Badger Ball – This little critter gets angry and hot when held. When a player with this ball begins an action he must roll a D6, on a 1 he drops the ball and the ball scatters as normal, on a 2-6 the player withstands the heat for the turn. Dropping the ball due to the heat does cause a turnover and scatters as normal.
8 Morg Plush Doll Ball – It’s a stuffed doll of the greatest Blocker Ogre ever Morg N’thorg… so nothing special here.
9 Dragon Egg Ball – When this ball hits the ground it emits a fireball. The location of the ball is always the center of the fireball, to see who is hit by the fireball use the Fireball rules found with the Wizard Rules in the CRP or LRB6 (Rulebook).
10 Maldonado Ball – This baby… er ball is freaking huge. For any picking up, throwing, catching, or intercept attempts the player uses their ST, instead of their AG. This ball when kicked scatters as if the Kick skill was used. |
